Wet Spray Cellulose Insulation as an Excellent Thermal Barrier - Boston, Worcester, MA

3 March 2017

Wet spray cellulose insulation can offer many different benefits. It is actually an advantageous option especially for new construction and additions.

Wet spray cellulose insulation is made up of shredded paper fiber most of which is recycled or surplus material. The cellulose material is sprayed into an open cavity by an insulation specialist. It is applied with a mist of water to activate the adhesive ingredient in the cellulose blend. The wall cavity is sprayed from the bottom up until it is full. It is important that the mixture is blended with exact measures. Too much water can cause the material to sag or take longer to dry. Too little will not be able to active the adhesive ingredient so the cellulose will not stick to the wall cavity. Only an insulation specialist can ensure that right mixture is achieved.

Another benefit of wet spray cellulose insulation in Worcester, MA is the air sealing effect, emulating the best properties of a spray foam which is a more expensive alternative for insulation. Wet spray cellulose produces an excellent thermal and air retarder and homes will get all these benefits without needing to break the bank.
